Man, this shit is going to be so hard to get, there's only 300. Ugh. I'm going to pull a suprefan and camp out at Amoeba at 6 or 7 AM. I will get a copy of this. There's a lot of stuff I want, but this one is must-have. Now I'm wondering if it will be in Punk or a special RSD section? Every second counts.

Not sure how it is at Amoeba, but here *everything* out on RSD is behind the counter and it's pretty much first come first serve to ask the clerk behind the counter for whatever you want. I would imagine that the more exclusive things would be like that anywhere unless they want fights to break out hah.

So the Glasshouse just anounced that At The Drive-In's "Vaya" will be available both weekends at Coachella. There will be 250 for sale each weekend. Pretty sweet.

And I will kill for that Shape of Punk To Come reissue if I have to.

You will be wasting your time. Vaya will be going on sale Saturday the 14th. Kind of an "unofficial" record store day, I guess.

EDIT: Looks like I made that part up. It doesn't say which day it will be going onsale Weekend 1. Weird. Maybe it will go onsale Friday?

They accept card. They've also got free storage for same-day purchases, and you can pay for storage of your purchases through the weekend. I've found some really good scores in the store, and it's a great place to escape the heat for a bit.

Awesome, thanks! I'll hit there first thing on Friday to see what they have, but it looks like from their description on coachella.com they won't sell any RSD things until Saturday. I'm expecting to spend quite a bit...

Re: Record Store Day 2012 (April 21st)

Normally I try to give myself a limit, but this year there ar so many great releases listed that I might just have to go buckwild. I really want the Uncle Tupelos, the ATDI, Refused, Cure...
Shit, it's gonna be a pricey Coachella.

Re: Record Store Day 2012 (April 21st)

My plan is to get Coachella exclusives while I'm there for weekend 1, and then hit up my participating record store on the 21st. I hope this stuff doesn't turn into a giant resell party to make a buck. eBay was RIDICULOUS last year.
